Description

This Nutella-Stuffed Deep Dish Churro Skillet Cookie recipe combines the rich, gooey texture of a skillet cookie with a luscious Nutella center, all coated in cinnamon sugar for that classic churro flavor. Perfectly baked in a skillet for a crisp edge and soft, melty middle, this dessert is an indulgent treat that’s simple to make and irresistibly delicious.

Ingredients

Cookie Dough

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Filling

  • 1/2 cup Nutella

Coating

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Skillet: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with non-stick spray or butter to ensure the cookie doesn’t stick.
  2. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Then add the egg and mix until fully incorporated.
  3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt to evenly distribute the leavening and spices.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a cohesive dough forms without overmixing.
  5. Form the Base Layer: Divide the dough in half. Press half of the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared skillet to form the crust.
  6. Add Nutella Filling: Spoon dollops of Nutella evenly over the dough base, leaving space so the filling doesn’t spill out when covered.
  7. Cover with Remaining Dough: Take the second half of the dough and cover the Nutella completely, gently pressing to seal the edges.
  8. Apply Cinnamon Sugar Coating: In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon together. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the top of the cookie dough for a churro-inspired finish.
  9. Bake: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes. Bake until the edges are golden brown and the center is set but still gooey inside where the Nutella is.
  10. Cool and Serve: Let the skillet cookie cool slightly to allow the gooey Nutella to set. Slice into wedges and serve warm for the best experience.

Notes

  • Use a 10-inch oven-safe skillet to ensure even cooking and ease of serving.
  • Allow the cookie to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing to avoid the Nutella oozing out too much.
  • The cinnamon sugar coating on top adds the signature churro flavor and a slight crunch.
  • You can substitute Nutella with any chocolate hazelnut spread or even peanut butter for variation.
  • Store leftovers covered at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 5 days; reheat before serving.
